If I thought I could explain it I would have. Just come to the damn rover.

PKN7 training will begin shortly: the destruction of an entire planet does not win you the right to lay about growing soft. I suggest doing these exercises on your own or in pairs in order to prepare for what's ahead. If you require assistance, either Shepard or myself will be on hand to provide it.
If you want a list of the names of your fellow cadets, I will supply it.

Warm up - 5:00 with slow run / stretch arms and legs
Repeat this cycle of exercises non-stop 5-10 times:
- 10 Regular pushups
- 10 Regular situps
- 20 Lunges
0.5 mile run

Understood. May I see a list of the other candidates if it isn't too much trouble?

[Spoilers: she's not well enough to even do these exercises at the moment, but that won't stop her from texting you with lofty expectations. Peacekeepers are nice like that.]

It won't be getting any easier from here on out. If you want to survive, you won't let yourself get soft.
That said, this is a suggestion, not an assignment: if you choose not to do it, I won't be reprimanding you for it.

Alright, thank you. I know one of them. I'll attempt to contact them and see if we might train together.

NHD-C12-LRC-310's height without the shoes on is 165 centimeters. Because I said I would.

He said I wouldn't reveal his height, I said I would, he called me a loser. Who's the loser now?

Ah, it all makes sense now.
